This open-ended hybrid shortfilm develops from the mesh of living and dead agents and processes; bodies, landscape, time and matter constantly passing through each other, blurring the boundaries, blurring the vision.
Playing with a recognizable narrative form; an older man searching for his lost adult son during one night while leaving his grandchild alone at home. While the father is trying to stop time, toreverse the irreversable; time, space and seasons slowly starts to accelerate and dissolve. Time has gone atomic, it no longer has face and hands but a pulse and a rhytm. The film moves through micro/macro perspectives, editing forms inspired from bacterial sex and neurons learning to speculative timelaps material inspired by molecular biology methods and weather modeling.
Part of a longer research on film and ’timespacematter’ supported by Swedish Arts Council, Kilpisjärvi Biological station, Bio Art Society and several researchers in the field of molecular biology and microclimate.
